INDIANAPOLIS -- The NBA announced today that Indianapolis has been selected to host NBA All-Star 2021. The 70th NBA All-Star Game will take place at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, home of the Indiana Pacers, on Sunday, Feb. 14, 2021. This will mark the second NBA All-Star in Indianapolis, which hosted the midseason classic in 1985.

Kawhi Leonard made his season debut Tuesday night and looked to be in midseason form, although the San Antonio Spurs struggled in the fourth quarter without him and lost to the Dallas Mavericks 95-89 at American Airlines Center.
